Chapter 4399 Next Stage
Chen Xi looked up and down at Li You, and after a while he spoke, "Do you think there are not enough things recently?"
Li You almost choked to death by Chen Xi's words, but he had to admit that it seemed that after Rome informed the world's major powers that it was preparing to celebrate the century-old celebration, world-class disasters have never stopped.
"I don't know about Kushan, but we have already written to Rome to stop the matters related to the Centennial Celebration." Although Chen Xi did not believe in metaphysics very much, he did not want to continue to be bad because of the already bad situation.
Just like the Chinese government, which emphasizes atheism in later generations, would choose a good day when building large-scale buildings and large-scale activities, not because of metaphysics or other reasons. It is just a comprehensive consideration, or a good omen to bless you.
Chen Xi didn't think that this series of events was caused by the centenary of Rome. Even though there was indeed a certain connection, in reality, these things were more accidental. It was just that there were too many recent destructive facts. Chen Xi thought it would be better to let Rome calm down.
"In this case, there should be no hope for the Centennial Celebration." Chen Xi said with a smile, "Even because of this incident, Rome may not have any Centennial Celebration in the future. Even a guy like me who doesn't believe in metaphysics will be a bit gusty this time."
"It's good to stop. If you really want to say that, I'm afraid that Rome will continue to do whatever it takes." Li You nodded after thinking for a while. Although it was indeed a bit of a slap in the face of the Roman Empire, considering that there was so much fun before, it was more appropriate to stop.
"I don't know what's going on in Nordic countries now. There is also the family in Central Asia and the caravans staying in Rome that pay more attention. The potions on Zijing can only solve the problem of being parasitic. We now need to defend against parasitic epidemic prevention drugs, and the latter is the real way to solve the problem." Chen Xi reminded Li You.
"Speaking of this, are you sure you will leave Yongliang to Xinzhou and then go to Sichuan and Shu?" Li You expressed his understanding after hearing this, and then naturally changed the problem.
Before the Eastern Tour, it was a brief tour, which made a new wave of industrial layout and solved many problems, which gave enough support to the second five-year plan. Later, during the Jizhou Rebellion, Chen Xi passed by Jizhou in detail. In the whole world, Chen Xi did not inspect carefully, only Youzhou, Liangzhou, Sichuan and Xinzhou were the places like Xinzhou.
Youzhou was left aside first. Chen Xi probably had no chance to go to Youzhou in a short period of time, but after the three major states of Liangzhou, Sichuan and Xinzhou, Chen Xi carried out relevant inspection plans after returning from the eastern tour.
Unlike the industrial layout of the Eastern Tour, the three states in the Western Tour basically involved logistical arrangements during the later period of national development, that is, roads, traffic and other issues.
The northwest line of Liangzhou and Xinzhou have been built, and the north-south line of Xinzhou is at least connected, reaching the Pamir Mountains. It can be said that the northwest route that began to be built before the Yuanfeng Dynasty was established has been truly repaired. This road is the basis for the Han culture to maintain the advantages of Central Asia in the future.
Although if it is to be maintained all year round and ensure that government orders can be effectively transmitted to all parts of Central Asia, the main roads that extend from the Pamir Mountains to the core area of Central Asia also need to be built, but this is not something that can be completed overnight, but it is a real millennium plan.
For Chen Xi, being able to repair the Northwest Passage and complete the two north-south line projects in NSW has already reached his early plan, because after this road is repaired, as long as New South Wales can maintain the existing grain output, ensure the existing national station system, and the rotation of troops, the local government can maintain its deterrent ability to Central Asia for a long time.
Because when there was no problem with grain supply along the Liangzhou line to Xinzhou line, the Han Dynasty sent troops from Chang'an and could reach the Pamir Mountains by carriages at present, which means that the Han Dynasty had the power to beat Central Asia at any time.
In this way, even if other forces appear in Central Asia and then recur, relying on local deterrence, the Han civilization can still take root stubbornly. Even if the times are running, the Han Dynasty falls apart. Such a military transfer ability can ensure that successors can continue to maintain such a huge cultural circle, and this is the direction Chen Xi has been working hard for.
It can be said that the northwest road has not been built. As long as the Han families in Central Asia and even Africa are weak, they may be reversely absorbed and assimilated and conquered. However, if this road is built, then Central Asia will not be lost for the Han Dynasty, that is, the current South Vietnam, although it is far away.
Chen Xi didn't want to work hard for so long, and in the end, under various accidents, the Dingsheng Cultural Circle he established was conquered by foreigners. So while trying to expand the cultural circle, Chen Xi was also constantly checking for omissions and closing all loopholes as much as possible.
Therefore, after the Northwest Passage is repaired, Chen Xi will inevitably go to New South Wales for inspection.
To be honest, although Sima Lang is Chen Xi's far-far cousin, and if you really want to say it, Chen Xi is really not relieved when he did those things last time. In addition, Chen Xi must really need to see what the situation is there.
There are various reasons for whether a nation can be rooted in a land, but the most core point is actually only one. Can it survive on this land and whether it can live well!
The former decides whether there can be someone, and the latter decides whether they will fight for this land.
Chen Xi could see everything in the Han Dynasty and adjusted everything that should be adjusted. Even though Chen Xi was indeed a little arrogant in some aspects, Chen Xi did make the people live as well as possible. Therefore, even if the foreign war was constantly fought, the country did not feel war-weary at the overall level. At most, it was difficult to see the new recruits' attitude of being happy when they heard the war.
But Xinzhou is different. Chen Xi doesn’t know what the situation is there. Chen Xi also read the official document reported by Sima Lang. It is indeed OK. The problem is that the official document is very different from reality. The difference between the text on paper and reality is actually very large.
The simplest thing is that according to the records of the Qin bamboo slips in Shuihudi, the integrity of the Qin law is completely exponential in later generations, involving almost all aspects, and almost all situations have laws to follow, but everyone knows the actual records of historical books.
No matter what kind of legal system it is, when it falls into reality, it depends on the executor. All legal system and when it falls into reality, it is actually ruled by man.
Similarly, no matter how good the law is written, if the executor reads it wrongly, he will not be able to express it in law, but can only express it in examples.
There is a saying that "lift weight when a crime is committed to show slightness, and carry light when a crime is committed to show slightness." This thing is not even considered a hidden rule, but a rule that is still used today.
What is human governance? This is human governance.
In this case, Chen Xi could only believe Sima Lang's official documents for seven points, and the rest had to be investigated and understood by himself. Of course, people could be sent to investigate and collect intelligence, but there were also various possibilities for deceive Shangguan. Chen Xi never believed that it was all the things that were honest officials.
Even Yanzhou and Jizhou are so chaotic, it is just a sparse and ordinary for Chen Xi. It is abnormal for the bureaucrats not to make such an outrageous fuss.
There are all kinds of talents in this circle, and there are also all kinds of darkness that makes people see the soul hurt. There are also some heroes who really work with their lives, and there are all kinds of people.
In fact, this is the normal situation. It is unrealistic to be all good people or all bad people. Most people are just ordinary people.
Therefore, the best way to solve the problem is to go there yourself. Just like the recent animal disaster in the Han Dynasty, Chen Xi knew that even if he couldn't go on, there was definitely some false reports of losses in these reported official documents, but as long as it was not too much, Chen Xi could turn a blind eye, but after passing a certain line or even creating losses by artificially, he had to attack hard.
Liu Bei also realized this and went to the place to verify it himself.
After all, the scope of management is wider now, which is different from the situation where Liu Bei personally invited a meal before taking office and sent it to Fenggaocheng.
What's more, even those who are corrupted are not corrupted. At most, these people can explain everything calmly after Liu Bei appears in front of him, and then seal the sword and punish themselves. After all, people's hearts are very complicated, and there are very few pure white and pure black guys.
"Yes, from Yongliang to Xinzhou, you must go through this northwest passage directly to the Pamir Mountains, and you must take a look at Brother Boda's political achievements on the spot." Chen Xi nodded calmly.
Li You expressed his understanding after hearing this. Although Chen Xi asked Li You to give Sima Lang a special guide at the dynasty meeting at the opening of the sixth year of Yuanfeng, and said that the accounts were settled, he would not blame him. However, Li You knew very well that Sima Lang's accounts were settled very ordinary, and he could only say that he could barely explain.
In this case, Chen Xi's trip this time is considered the final verification. If Sima Lang cannot reach a level that Chen Xi has seen before this time, if he is lucky, he will be dismissed for the people and if he is not lucky, he may need to kill the chicken to warn the monkey.
After all, there are many people who want the position of the governor of New South Wales. No matter how bad it is, Zhang, who is in Tiangzhou, is also a good choice. If you change the positions of the two, you will solve everything.
Even from Li You's standpoint, Chen Xi has been delaying her to Xinzhou until now, which has given Sima Lang enough time. If the standards still do not meet, then no matter how much Sima's family has, it will not be enough to consume. A Sima Jun died to use it to prevent disasters, which has consumed a lot of money, and will be consumed later...
"Go to the northwest first, then go to the southwest?" Li You didn't say anything specifically about Sima Lang, and naturally turned to Chen Xi's itinerary.
"Well, the road in the southwest will be completed by then." Chen Xi said slowly.
"Is the southwest road going to be repaired?" Li You took a breath. Although he didn't pay much attention to Sun Gan's side, it shouldn't be so fast.
"It is not that the road to the Ganges River has been built, but that all the overpasses in the Hengduan Mountains have been built. There is basically no need to consider the construction of the overpass in the future. The difficulty of the construction is basically not difficult for Gongyou." Chen Xi explained.
There is actually no technical difficulty in building roads in the plains. Planning and design are not a problem. At least Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang are currently considered mature construction teams to build roads of the county road.
The roads in the southwest have been dragged for so long, which is more because Chen Xi took a straight line directly in the southwest mountainous area for convenience reasons.
High-difficulty projects such as viaducts and tunnels ensure that the road from Chang'an to Hanzhong, Hanzhong to Chengdu, and Chengdu to Kunmi almost maintains a straight line as possible. Such a road is almost the overall optimal construction plan.
The only drawback is probably that the construction is too difficult, and the advantage is that after repair, it can ensure that it can go abroad directly from Chang'an within one month, which also ensures that subsequent materials can be transported to Chang'an on a large scale within two to three months.
Of course, at that time, Chengdu, as an important node, will inevitably undertake the military preparations in the southwest region, so that the efficiency of sending troops will be further improved.
As for Chang'an, as long as the military force is maintained enough to suppress the important nodes of the southwest military preparations, the stability of the entire southwest war zone can be maintained.
It can be said that the Southwest Line was the basis for the stability of Liangzhou and Xinzhou caused by the Han Dynasty's future rule of the entire Western Line and maintaining possible subsequent climate problems.
In turn, such a structure also ensures that the power of Liangzhou and Xinzhou will be used by Chang'an and can continuously suppress the Southwest Line at extremely low costs.
Therefore, the completion of the Northwest Line and the Southwest Line meant that Chen Xi’s plan was truly in the middle and late stages by the strategy. As for the foreign part of the Southwest Line, it was built in segments in about two to three years. After that, it could be built with the main roads on the other side of the Ganges River, and the extension of the Han Dynasty could be basically completed.
"In this case, isn't it all done to directly connect with the roads on the Indochina Peninsula?" Li You asked in confusion.
"You wouldn't think the road you took back then was still there." Chen Xi rolled his eyes and said.
The road Li You walked south was built by Yuan Shu and Liu Zhang. To put it bluntly, it was a road that could be quickly paved with concrete.
However, let alone the tropical rainforest after the strengthening of the essence of heaven and earth, even if you build a road in a tropical rainforest in reality, if you don’t lay the roadbed, dig out wet soil, backfilling the gravel, and compacting the filler, you can’t survive for a year after the road is repaired...
